After the usual autograph or remembrance book session with everyone signing each other‘s book in honor of the event, the leaders had words of praise for their camp life which was run on flexible, "democratic‘ prinâ€" ciples. The campers who attended the Heart Lake Camp Out were: Biddy Sykut, Dalbrottie Avenue; Barbara Major, Woodward Aveâ€" nue; Valerie Nicoll, King Street; It was "absolutely unanimous" that no one wanted to go home. The campers felt they had just about settled into a routine and then ‘"bango, we had to pack up and leave." But the leaders were philosophical about "all good things having to come to an end." The concensus of the leaders opinion was that "if we could have our way we would have liked to camp there the rest of the summer." The campers enjoyed one night of pure beauty in drama of the sky. They reported besides a lovely half moon seeing the lovely half moon seeing the little dipper for the first time.

The girl‘s onâ€"stage costume is identical â€" blue polka dotted, white ruffled blouses, with matâ€" ching blue tight siims. They decided on the name "Dynamics", suggested b y Lynda‘s brother Dennis, 19, afâ€" ter going through such names as Chicklets, Sneekers, Mark IVs, and the Uniques. They had a lot of fun with a number called "Diddlin‘" by Mr. Hermansen, which they shook off with great professionâ€" al gusto.

The girls as a gruop first came to Mr. Hermansen‘s atâ€" tention through loud praises from a boy‘s amateur group who happened to hear them practice in the basement of his store. Gail is the only one of the group who has studied guitar professionally. She still takes lessons from Jim Hermansen, the professional guitar teacher who owns and operates the M & J Music Center and acts as adâ€" visor for the girls. The girls are, for the most part, selfâ€"taught. They say you don‘t have to be able to read music to learn guitar chords and they have picked up the chords from the selfâ€"teaching expert, Nick Manoff. They rely on two of his guitar chord dial charts religiously. of the school band, playing the big bass or "bull" fiddle. She is as yet undecided whether to take the fourâ€"years commercial or arts and science course. Mrs. Allard says Lynn and Lynda both started piano first, three years ago, with the same private teacher. ‘"Then they disâ€" covered the guitar and if they had paid as much attention to piano as they have with guitar, they would have got somewhere with piano, too," says Lynda‘s mother.

Marilyn Hook summerized her. feelings by saying, ‘"we expectâ€" ed to have a good time at camp before we went and when we came back we knew we had got a good time!" Its apparent the girls have professional aspirations and afâ€" ter they finish their education, they look forward to working with their music and hoping to get their "big break". Their manager, Mr. Hermanâ€" sen is "pushing away" at plans for their future but is waiting for Gail to return from her vaâ€" cation ‘before working out a stiffer rehearsal program for them. He said they have a repâ€" ertoire of about 25 titles now and would like them to get clos er to 100. He said that he has "high hopes" for the success of ‘"Forget About The Boys" he hopes to record. The girls will probably conâ€" tinue with their Odeon shows, which as yet, have not been arâ€" ranged, as well as a new type of _ music â€" arrangement _ for church singing, according to Mr. Hermansen. The girls say they would like to "play in different places and make some money," "like teen night clubs." Their greatest amâ€" bition is to get on the Chum Hit Parade. The "Dynamics" have the usâ€" ual 14â€"yearâ€"old girlish interest in boys but they say "music practice comes first" and they "don‘t want to capitalize on their sex to become wellâ€" known." UNDER WRAPS The girls also compose their own numbers. Naida usually does the lyrics while the tune comes from the guitars. Then the "whole unit jumps in until everything is fixed up to perâ€" fection‘‘ says Lynda. The first number the girls created together is "When You Come". Another of their favorâ€" ites is daâ€"da or "Two Timin‘ Lover®. Another song, "Forget About the Boys", written and composed by Naida is being kept under wraps by Mr. Herâ€" mansen until he can get it reâ€" corded. urday. 248â€"1821 MEDICAL BUILDING 2160 Weston Rd.
